These founder line E mice have a 6-fold increase in expression of ABCA1 in the cortex over wild-type levels. Transgenic mice exhibit reduced apoE levels in the hippocampus and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

007182Under Development for Production
B6.Cg-Tg(Prnp-ITM2B/APP695*42)A12Emcg/J
These BRI-Abeta42 transgenic mice harbor a mouse prion promoter-driven BRI-Abeta42 fusion construct (containing a human type 2 transmembrane protein (BRI or ITM2B ) fused in-frame with a "wildtype APP695" cDNA sequence encoding amyloid-beta42 (Abeta42) at the furin-like cleavage site (the C-terminal 23 amino acid ABri peptide of BRI was replaced with the Abeta42 sequence)). As Abeta1-42 is fused to the C terminus of the BRI protein at the furin-like cleavage site, cleavage releases Abeta into the lumen or extracellular space, resulting in efficient secretion of Abeta1-42. Therefore, these BRI-Abeta42 transgenic mice specifically express the Abeta1-42 isoform in the absence of human amyloid beta protein precursor (APP) overexpression and may be useful in neurological studies of Alzheimer's disease, neurodegeneration, and amyloid plaque formation.
